The van driver for the GGB tour was very nice, easy to talk to, and accommodated us on getting back to our hotel in time for checkout. The video that played while we were driving was very informative and it was great that we got to see both sides of the bridge and had the opportunity to walk on it on the SF side out to the first column! We also had zero issues with the Alcatraz tickets, and I'm very happy to have found this tour because they had spots still available whereas the official Alcatraz site has been sold out for months in advance. The directions with pictures for both tours (as far as where to meet and what to look for) was very easy to follow and much appreciated as this was our first time ever in the area. I highly recommend this tour and this company, and couldn't have been happier with how both tours turned out!! Thank you :)
